"I want to be good, but I can't. And the things I hate the most is what I do all the time" I told God when I was 18. in my confusion I decided to read the bible and randomly I was led to Romans 7 when Apostle Paul was going through he same thing. I kept reading and Romans 8 showed me the life that God wanted me to live. At that moment something changed in my heart.
In my desire to grow, I visited a missionary that I had met a couple months ago, and asked him if he wanted to disciple me, teach me and train me to be a missionary like he was. It was a long process, fun at the beginning, hard and bitter when I finally found out that anger, unforgiveness, lust, adultery, were some of the pits hidden in my heart.
Confession, lots of prayer and commitment followed. A new life started. Now not a church goer, not a Christian but a follower of Christ, I was really confused when I first started experiencing the real narrow path, but it was a great adventure.
I kept growing in my relationship with God more and more everyday and God helped me to grow as a leader in my youth group. I started discipling others, so far I´m a spiritual grandpa.

A bigger thing was to come. After obeying him in my own Jerusalem, God called me to a farther place, countries where people have never heard of Jesus. I started praying about it and ask God to confirm his call, which was not an easy one. Now he has confirmed that call. I´ve been honored to serve Jesus in different places and he has glorified His name everywhere I go.
Now married, my wife´s pregnant and we are serving to train other kids who have a heart to be missionaries. I believe that the greatest ministry in to invest in others peoples lives and to make disciples of Christ teaching them everything Christ has taught us.
God bless.
